Youth Without God

Set in 1938 in a German city, Youth Without God presents a nuanced perspective on why some youths were drawn to Nazism. The film is adapted from the novel by Odon von Horvath and features dual narrators: a teacher who resists the Nazi ideology and a student who embraces it.

The story unfolds as the teacher, Pabst, attempts to guide a group of teenage boys, many of whom are aligned with the Nazi movement. When a boy is murdered during a class outing, the tension escalates, leading to a trial that challenges Pabst's convictions and safety. His commitment to justice places him at odds with the prevailing political climate, culminating in a powerful commentary on morality and courage in the face of oppression.
